Palestinian reports said he was shot while trying to climb the Separation Wall to reach the Al-Aqsa mosque. He was the 15th Palestinian shot dead since January.

A metal detector is said to have gone off when she passed the "Kikar Hashoter" checkpoint by the entrance of Hebron's al-Shuhada street. Soldiers claim she refused to heed a warning shot, and was shot in the legs when she drew a knife. When she attempted to raise the knife again, she was shot again. A photo on Palestinian media shows her kneeling as a soldier aims his rifle at her. The Israel account is that she hadn't at that point yet pulled out a knife. Fawaz Abu Aysha said the woman did not understand the Hebrew shouted at her, that as they shot at her feet she seemed in a state of shock, that she moved back when a gate was opened to allow her to retreat, a small gate inside the checkpoint so that she could back away from the soldiers. At the time of the shooting, a metre high barrier stood before her and the checkpoint soldiers.

They claim she refused inspection by males, and requested a woman soldier to conduct it, and note Israel has refused to release its own video evidence.
